Cruelty
Am I a suitable foster parent - No - why because nobody believes me when I say I am stable. When will they believe I am stable? How long? The answer - don't know. How do they decide? How do I prove it? The answer is - don't know. Can I re-apply? Yes. When? Don't know.
Am I ready for SRS? Yes I am. Can I get SRS? No. Why? Because nobody will accept my stability and readiness. Why is that? Why is there only me that can accept that? Let's face it I was born wrong. I survived that wrongness, fighting it in my own way for the good part of half a century. Then the Gender Clinic and WPATHi want more from you. They want you to prove this, that and the other by jumping through hoops. By going through social isolation, social abuse, rejection by family and friends, loss of family, friends and children. Absolute cruelty. After 45 years I have to endure more wrongness and more pain just to prove that I am me. Why do I have to prove it? Because nobody believes me. Why is that? Because people, society, the medical profession, friends, family, everyone, are cruel. The medicql profession is supposed to be a caring profession. It's that caring that they do this to you. I don't call it caring at all.

Marilyn which GIC are you
Marilyn which GIC are you attending ?. It is, regrettably, a fact of life these days within the NHS, that it is exclusively money driven, and management top heavy. My local PCTi proudly announced a 50k rise for one of thier execs recently A 50k Rise ??? how can that be justified ??? At the expense of patient care ...that's how.
Apalling, unforgiveable, dishonest, and downright wrong.
I'm just frustrated
I'm genuinely happy with the care I receive from my GIC but I am very frustrated with what I see as a cruel process where we have to prove everything. It would have been easier to have proved everything by becoming a suicide statistic then the system would have said 'oh yes, she was a transsexuali that's what happens'. Perhaps I would have been believed then? It reminds me of witch hunting in the middle ages - if you drowned when submerged in water you were a witch!
